It’s difficult to think of someone in politics more useless that London Mayor Sadiq Khan. At one point murders outpaced those in New York City, so the mayor urged YouTube to take down videos glorifying knife violence and put up handy knife disposal bins around town. And when acid attacks became a problem? The city put up handy posters instructing just what to do in the case of an acid attack.
At the moment, the mayor is concerned with spending some money to highlight African creativity in the city.
African cultures have shaped London into the vibrant city it is today. I’m supporting community-led projects spotlighting African creativity by investing another £20,000 into the #CultureSeeds programme.

The people of London, though, seem more concerned that they’re edging closer to the streets of San Francisco. At least the city put up signs asking citizens not to foul the sidewalks with human waste.
Are these the same people who need signs in London telling them not to crap in the street? pic.twitter.com/nDrPeHsE2b

It's certainly vibrating with the street shitting going on ……and it's such a problem it needs SIGNS putting up in ENGLISH telling them not to shit in the street !!
Anyone who shits in the street probably doesn't speak english, as a society we moved away from that decades ago

Be wonderful if you could promote British culture or just basic human decency, a video of how to use the toilet and not shit in the street or on the tube train floor, that wd be a start

Yeah, I remember London when it wasn’t “Vibrant” it was pleasant. In the good old days people didn’t even shit in the street. They used public conveniences and they could walk around at any time of day or night not wondering if they’d get home alive?#happydays

Strange I worked in London in the 90’s and never once saw signs reminding residents to not shit in the street ?♂️

Yes because using the streets and sidewalks to take a shit is the definition of a vibrant city. You dope.
— Peg (@a_cold_rain) August 3, 2019
How much did the "dont shit in the streets" signs cost then? We didnt have them before you.

When you have to put posters up to tell people not to deficate in the street that is turning London into a 3rd world shit hole mate. Not a vibrant city.
— Jacqueline Hortop (@Jacquel65931446) August 3, 2019
But please don’t shit in the street.

Vibrant city, Is this why you have erected signs telling people not to shit in the streets?
— mark talbot (@TheMarkTalbot) August 3, 2019
Toilet training?

"by investing another £20,000 into the #CultureSeeds programme."
Does this mean more "No Shitting" signs?
— Bill Rollinson (@Rollo54) August 4, 2019
Immigrants have taken London back hundreds of years. They even need to be told not to defecate in the street.

Here’s one of those “what to do in case of acid attack” posters:

The Mayor of London has a ‘strategy for culture’ but no strategy for crime.

Indeed, scary to think there was a time when London wasn’t full of vibrant machete attacks, acid dousings and moped robberies.

I would have to agree.
The hospitals can barely keep up with all of the the vibrancy.— JC Juancker #FBPE (Parody) (@Juancker_EU) August 3, 2019
Is this a parody account? ???
Vibrant = Incredibly stabby, rapey and acid in the facey
— Christian (@Catholic76) August 3, 2019
Maybe Khan could have a summit with Nancy Pelosi and Elijah Cummings about making their cities a little less “vibrant.”
